Okay, half baked thoughts on the whole Gautam-Soundarya segment today. Might have more thoughts later or have a different line of thought once they're fully baked, lol. 😆
Personally, I don't like Soundarya and I don't like Gautam as much either. I've also said and agreed with others here who were opinion that dentist ben had been showing interest in 3 guys at a time and it's something that I don't agree with on principles/morals basis, even for showmance sake. It was also pretty clear that Gautam had been pushing for a showmance angle, whether for a personal gain or for show's purpose only. So, in a way, these two were indeed using each other for their respective agendas, to an extent at least.
That said and agreed with,
- If Gautam view's and approach falls more into a conservative category and he expects the person he is romantically interested in and is pursuing that relationship to form boundaries and not show interest in other guys/behave casually or "freely" with other guys, it's fair enough. I haven't seen him showing interest in anybody else or being too casual and comfortable with other girls in the house in that sense once he had started pursuing her. So, it's fair, imo, for two people to expect certain things when begining a relationship.
- And if Gautam has expressed those concerns to others and used the most decent term there could be, I don't understand how that translates into sl*t shaming. Absolutely do not agree with KJo or with this script by BB/channel. "Free spirited" is not an insult or a term for character assassination. He only described Soundarya's tendency/ trait/personality/choice to mingle with more than one guy at a time.
- Regarding Manya's views in gossip task, I agreed with her because those were facts, lol. Don't know about the inappropriate touch and all but Soundarya has over and over again told Gautam that she does not initiate physical interaction with Shaleen/Stan, they do it first and she doesn't like it and that's a lie. 😆
What I understand from this is, the show/BB doesn't want a Gautam-Soundarya lovelapata for some reason. Because if this is oh so wrong, oh so calculative, oh so forced, oh so dishonest, oh so just for the showmance sake then what were all the love stories on the show so far, hainnn? Ships like SidNasz inlcuded. And if Shaleen-tina and Priyanka-Ankit are allowed to and propelled to explore the romantic area then Gautam-Soundarya kare toh galat kyun hain bhai? 🤔
Yeh Gautam ko punching bag banane ka decision kyun hua ek dum se is a mystery to me, lol. Probably coz they want a Gautam-Nimmo angle instead.
It's a personal choice to be as conservative or as free as someone wants to be, as long as it's consensual and agreed upon by the two parties. Toh Soundarya ka free bird hona koi tareef ki baat nahi agar conservative hona tareef ki baat nahi and vice versa. It's a damn choice based on one's own moral compass/principles/ethics.
